Some loved it, some hated it, many were simply meh, but the real unanswered question facing long-timeThronesfans is whetherGeorge R....

Now there’s no voter overlap so that doesn’t mean much in and of itself, but it is a reflection of how indies have dominated the Academy Awards in recent years....

The passing of time on television shows is a fascinating topic for those who like to nerd out about serialized storytelling. Some series, likeThe SimpsonsorLaw & Order, operate inside a timeless bubble where characters never age and nothing ever changes. Other shows, likeFriendsorBig Mouth, might adhere to a strict progression of events, with one season taking place over a set number of weeks or months and each episode paying off consequences from the ones before....

It’s hard to discern what films deserve a sequel so long after the original, and we’ve learned that IP notoriety and nostalgia aren’t enough to justify the revival of a long-dead property....
